The crisis forces drivers to switch from original spare parts to non-genuine parts. This also applies to critical consumables such as brake pads, because the safety of the
To begin with, we note that no car assembly plant needs only brake pads. The company is interested in supplying a fully functional braking system, which is sent directly to the conveyor. Therefore, contracts are concluded with the largest manufacturers of such systems – with TRW, Brembo, ATE. Their products are considered original and feature logos of leading car manufacturers.
Original spare parts are the most expensive by default, so more and more drivers pay attention to non-original parts, and there are many nuances here. The quality of such spare parts, as a rule, is not worse, since the same technologies are used. For example, the already mentioned TRW, Brembo and ATE pads go to the secondary market under their own brand and are cheaper. But now that the prices for such products have also increased, many began to pay attention to those spare parts manufacturers that are not well known. Interest in Chinese spare parts has also grown.
When buying consumables, pay attention to the R90 brand. It means that the product meets the requirements for the aftermarket in Europe. These pads are tested on three parameters: the density of the friction material on the carrier plate, the compressibility test of this material and the friction measurement test. Without such a stigma, the pads should not be sold on the Old World Market. So our citizens should not buy them.
If there is a label, good. Then look at the part number. As a rule, it will differ from the original. The seller can help with this, because major car dealers have databases of spare parts, such as TecDoc. Here you can find information about most non-genuine consumables and check the numbers of the original and non-genuine consumables.
And when you compare the old original block with the new one, keep in mind that there may be differences. Products may have a color or finish that reduces noise. Instead of a metal anti-noise plate, mastic is often applied to the part.
Note the composition of the friction layer. It can be hard or soft. Rigid is suitable for those who rarely travel. The bottom line is that a long standstill will cause corrosion on the brake discs, which will remove hard blocks more quickly. After all, iron oxide in the composition of the friction part has a very high hardness – many times more than the hardness of cast iron. But on soft rust pads, micro-scratches may remain, which will grow over time, leading to increased wear of consumables.
